This article shows the analysis of pedestrian accessibility of the school-age population between 5 and 14 years old, towards the educational centers that offer the basic primary and basic secondary levels in the city of Ibagué. For the development of the study, information was provided on the city's road network, the population census for 2005 blocks and the educational centers of the urban area with their offer for 2017. The spatial and demographic understanding of the city together with the application of minimum time indicators, absolute accessibility and cumulative opportunities, they allow for an integral analysis taking into account the supply-demand for education. Based on the results obtained, a diagnosis is generated that evaluates the degree of accessibility that the school-age population has and the coverage that the educational centers have over the territory.

Keywords : Pedestrian accessibility; basic education; geographic information systems; accessibility indicators.
